describe how proportions are cut in the following planes:
1. transverse
2. coronal (frontal)
3. sagittal - ANS1. cuts through abdominal cavity splitting sections into top and bottom
proportions.
2. cuts the body into front and back portions.
3. cuts body into left and right proportions down the midline.
what does proximal and distal mean? - ANSproximal - closer to the point of attachment
distal - farther away from point of attachment.
Histology is the study of - ANStissues
name the 4 fundamental tissues in the body: - ANSepithelial, connective, muscle, and nerve
the _______ is the basic unit of life and building blocks of tissues and organs. - ANScell
connective tissue cells are called... - ANSneuroglia
nerve tissue is composed of - ANSneurons
What's the main difference between skeletal muscles and smooth muscle? - ANSskeletal is
voluntary muscle control vs smooth m. which is involuntary such as the heart m.
Ribosome function - ANSProtein synthesis
differentiate mitosis and meiosis - ANSmitosis is necessary for growth and repair. In this process
the DNA is duplicated and distributed evenly to two daughter cells.
The meiosis is the special cell division that takes place in the gonads that is the ovaries and
testes. in the process of meiosis chromosome number is reduced from 46 to 23 so when the
egg and the sperm unite and fertilization the zygote will have the correct number of
chromosomes.
the skin is the largest blank of the body - ANSorgan
the epidermis is classified as
a. cell
